Artists/bands similar to

Let’s have a thread for recommendations for people seeking music with markedly similar attributes to music they already like.

I’ll start:
*bands like Interpol
*artists with similar touch as Thom Yorke
*artists with an orchestra that remind of Bryan Ferry’s solo albums
*singers with a voice somewhat similar to the Cranberries’ Dolores O’Riordan
*good bands that resemble a-ha

I’ll give it a go:

*bands like Interpol
Joy Division, and oddly Rosetta Stone (the darkwave/goth band)

*artists with similar touch as Thom Yorke
Brian Eno was the Thom of my generation. David Byrne was Thom to Talking Heads.

*artists with an orchestra that remind of Bryan Ferry’s solo albums
Nick Cave has a couple, then there’s the synths on Avalon. And, Frank Sinatra :slight_smile:

*singers with a voice somewhat similar to the Cranberries’ Dolores O’Riordan
She kind of reminds me of Liz Fraser of Cocteau Twins.

*good bands that resemble a-ha
ABC, Naked Eyes
